The sky was gradually getting light. Elizabeth leaned against the head of the bed in a daze. She remained in this posture for a whole night and didn't even sleep for a second. How was she able to fall asleep? At the thought of those bad things and what Zena had said, as well as James's attitude while talking to Evelyn... she had no way to fall asleep. Yesterday, she said that she wanted to stay alone and think about what she should do next. However, after one night, she didn't come up with any ideas. She was afraid of not being able to go back to the university, not being able to get her diploma, and being discussed by others. What she worried about the most was that James would leave her and then be with Zena. As soon as she thought that she might not be able to be with James in the future, her heart ached so much and her mind was in a mess. She could not describe her current mood. In short... she felt so bad. Her stomach was gro
"Young Master." Jane stood behind James with a tray in her hands. There was an empty bowl on the tray. James didn't look back. After a few seconds, he asked in a deep voice, "How is it? Has Young Madam eaten her meal?" "Yes. The make-up artists went in just now." Jane nodded with a smile, "Young Master, sure enough, Young Madam feels better after you come back. When you were not at home, Young Madam hardly ate. Yesterday, she didn't eat anything and didn't even drink a sip of water." Jane sighed and then said, "Young Madam has been in a bad mood these days. I don't know why she suddenly became unhappy. The day before yesterday, she seemed to have a dream while sleeping. After she got up, she asked me if you were back. I said that it was because she missed you too much. But... Yesterday, she became so strange." "......" James turned around and put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray beside him. He pursed his lips and lowered his eyes. He looked very gri
Zena coughed lightly and then said, "She was too careless. How could she be photographed... Jimmy must be angry." Hearing this, Lydia turned around to look at Zena and asked unpleasantly, "Zena, what do you mean... by saying this?" Zena smiled drily, "Elizabeth looks very nice on the surface in normal times, and Jimmy cares about her very much, but what she has done really hurt Jimmy's heart, hasn't it? I am also a woman and I should support Elizabeth now, but I grew up with Jimmy, so I feel distressed for him. Elizabeth... has hurt Jimmy's heart severely." "No." Lydia was so angry, but she smiled and broke away from Zena's hand. She took a step aside, "Zena, it seems that you've also misunderstood Elizabeth." "Auntie, I want to believe in Elizabeth. After all, my impression of her is favorable. However, those photos and videos are real, so I... Jimmy treats her so well. I'm just so shocked." Lydia pursed her lips and frowned hard, "Zena, you have your ow
Elizabeth got in James's car. She closed her eyes and didn't say anything. She didn't know what James was thinking about, because he didn't say anything, either. She had been to the Civil Affairs Bureau from South Lake once. Last time, she was high-strung and nervous, because she was so young, but she had to register for marriage with a man she was not familiar with. Moreover, she was a little scared, because she had no idea what her marriage would be like. At that time, even if she did not think about how she would live with him in the future, she really had no better choice. But at this time, she was also jittery. Although she closed her eyes, she was a maelstrom of churning emotions inside. In her heart, she kept thinking that she didn't want to divorce at all, but she couldn't say it out. She was regarded as a sl*tty woman, and he didn't give her any chance, so it was useless for her to struggle. Arriving at the Civil Affairs Bureau meant
Elizabeth was pulled back to the car by James, staring ahead in horror. She didn't want to care about anything at this time. She turned to James and pleaded, "Let's go, okay?" James sighed, but he shook his head, "I know you are afraid. But, when we were at home, I told you that if there is a problem, we should solve it. Don't you think so? Now, we are already here, so we must solve this problem." As he said this, he reached out and held her in his arms. He felt extremely sad, but his tone was very tender, "Don't be afraid. I'm here by your side." Elizabeth's body was stiff, and she kept shaking her head. "Look." James pointed to the front, "Our people have come here, and they will drive away those bad guys who speak ill of you, so, don't worry. Okay?" With her eyelashes trembling a little, Elizabeth lifted her eyelids and looked in the direction that James was pointing. At the gate of A University, more than 20 young men in black suits suddenl
In the playground, a temporary high platform had been built, and there was a very large curtain behind it. Elizabeth knew that she couldn't change James's mind. No matter how scared she was when she saw so many people, she had to be led by James and walked to the high platform like a puppet. "I received a message that we don't have to attend any class today, and we were asked to come here. I was wondering what had happened, but..." "Is that Elizabeth? She even dares to come to school again." "Hey, look at the man who is holding Elizabeth's hand! Is that James?" "Yeah." "Oh my! I didn't expect Elizabeth to be so seductive and disgusting. She actually became James's mistress." "Are you envious or jealous? If he always asks you to meet him in the hotel, are you willing to be his mistress?" "He even arranged so many bodyguards. How ostentatious it is!" "They came here today, and President Fang asked all of us to come here. What on eart
A few minutes later, on the large screen behind Elizabeth, a video was projected by a projector. It was the video of Elizabeth standing in the corridor in Grand Dynasty Hotel after entering the wrong room, and the time was marked on it. The second video was of Elizabeth entering President Lee's room after she was drugged by Josephine. But it was unlike the scene in the video which had been posted on the school website. President Lee and Elizabeth didn't go into the room together. In the video, President Lee, who looked so fast, entered the room first. After a long while, Elizabeth was taken to the room by a waiter unconsciously. After a while, James appeared on the video, and he was followed by several people. Then, James entered the room as well. After the surveillance videos were played, the photos that had been pixelated appeared again. In the picture, the men's faces were no longer pixelated. It was James's face, and the man in the last two photos was Xavie
Genevieve's body shook heavily. She felt that her cell phone which had received a new message suddenly became burning hot. James was very powerful, and he could drive Margot out of the country easily... She really regretted taking Margot's things and money. As if a dying person was struggling in her last moment, Genevieve said in a trembling voice, "How could a woman like Elizabeth marry you?" Wasn't Margot still waiting for James? "Besides, Elizabeth is still a college student! She hasn't graduated yet! How could you get married? I won't believe it unless you show us your marriage certificate!" Speechlessly, James glanced at Genevieve whose face was red, and said with a chuckle, "May I ask... what's your name?" As soon as he said this, the crowd burst into laughter. They were all laughing at Genevieve. In fact, James's implication was that she was not qualified to see the marriage certificate. Genevieve stood still, and her pretty face had blushed s
Time went by so quickly. In the blink of an eye, John was already sixty years old. He didn't like complicated things and didn't like to celebrate his birthday. However, Lydia insisted on holding a birthday party for him. Considering that he liked quiet atmosphere, Lydia didn't celebrate his birthday in style. She only invited some close friends. Benjamin and Isaac naturally went there. Arvis was already five years old. He was much more lively than a few years ago, but he was not particularly noisy. Adele was pregnant again. The child was less than five months old, but Isaac was very nervous and followed her everywhere. He was so careful that James and Benjamin couldn't stand him anymore. That day, James teased him, "Say, Isaac, why are you so cautious? Adele is not a porcelain doll. If you want to please her, you don't have to be so affected." Isaac handed a piece of apple to Adele. After she finished eating, he replied, "I love my wife.
John didn't expect that she would mention this matter on her own. He fell in love with her first and said that he wanted to get engaged to her, but she proposed to get married first. Was it even? However, he wasn't a strait-laced person. Besides, wasn't it a good thing that his beloved girl couldn't wait to marry him? If they got married, he could see her as soon as he got home from work, and she would accompany him for meals. If he worked at home, she would stay with him. When he woke up in the morning, he would see her sleeping face at once and say good morning to her. At night, they could sleep together. What a wonderful thing! They got married in early August. The wedding was very grand, and there were many guests. Almost everyone who had something to do with the Lu family and the Song family attended their wedding, and some even came from afar. The three floors in the most luxurious hotel in A City was filled to capacity. John would always
"Happy birthday to you!" She sang the birthday song softly. Her voice was dulcet and soft, and it was very pleasant to the ear. The candlelight on the cake flickered as she moved, and the fruit on the cake gleamed in the candlelight. As Lydia approached John step by step, he felt that he was going crazy. She preferred to wear dresses, but all her dresses were lovely. Sometimes, she wore like a read lady. But at this time... She wore a long black lace dress that only reached her bottom. It was so flimsy that he could see her underwear... Her bra and pants were red and sexy, which only covered the most important parts of her body... At this time, John was obsessed with her, and he was hot all over. He felt that all the blood in his body was boiling, and his head seemed to be a little dizzy. "John..." Lydia came to him and looked at him shyly. "Today is your birthday." He looked at her bright and affectionate eyes and couldn't help but
John's birthday was coming soon, and Lydia was very distressed, because she hadn't decided what to buy for him. It was in the dark ages of computing. There was a computer in her house, but the network was not very developed. Therefore, she only asked a few close friends about it. They told her that she could buy him tie, cuffs, and clothes, but she denied these ideas at once. John was born in a rich family. After he grew up, he became a very excellent businessman. He had received many expensive birthday gifts, let alone something like a tie. As his fiancee, she couldn't be perfunctory, could she? So, she went to the mall, but she didn't see anything she liked. It seemed that giving him a special and novel birthday gift was not easy. She didn't know how to make handwork or paint. She had learnt piano when she was young, but she gave up later. After thinking about it for a while, she suddenly felt that she was so stupid. Except for the fact that she co
With the permission of Lydia's parents, John travel with her abroad for a few days. After coming back, he hired someone to teach her at home. Lydia had a feeling of freshness at the beginning. After all, she used to attend classes at school. At this time, she could learn knowledge at home. Moreover, the teachers were very careful and very patient. However, the next day, she was not willing to study like this, so she went to find John. "Why?" John was puzzled, "Is it because they can't teach their lessons well enough? If that's the case, I'll change new teachers for you tomorrow." "No!" She kept waving her hand, "They are very good teachers and they're patient, but..." She looked at him cautiously and thought twice before speaking, "They are just too patient, and they take good care of me as if I'm a child. I feel... a little stressful." John was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled, "Is this the reason?" "Yeah." Lydia nodded, "But I am not a chil
Lydia really didn't go to school anymore. Although all the misunderstandings had been clarified, she didn't want to go to school again. On the second day after she went through formalities, Nina came to her and asked for her forgiveness. At that time, John was there, but later he found an excuse and went out. Lydia looked at Nina who had suddenly become much more haggard and sighed in heart. Why did Nina have to provoke her back then? "I'm sorry." Nina said softly. "Oh." Hearing this, Nina immediately got unhappy and glared at her with hatred, "Lydia, are you very smug now?" She was apologizing to Lydia, but Lydia actually replied to her so indifferently. Lydia shrugged her shoulders, "Do you think I'm smug now?" "I'm apologizing to you!" "I heard it. Didn't I answer you as well?" "You..." Nina sneered, "Is that your answer?" "What do you expect?" Lydia was puzzled, "How do you want me to answer you? Should I thank you w
Nina's voice came from the stereo around the playground. She had said a lot. There were so many people on the sports ground, but none of them spoke. They were all shocked and stunned. "As for what I said to Lydia, it was my prank. Actually, Lydia's fiance has nothing to do with me. I... just envied her for having such an excellent fiance and I was jealous. Therefore, I did that to her that day..." After she said this, the crowd, which had been quiet, suddenly burst into an uproar. "Oh my god! How could it be?" "I heard that she was very excited that day. She cried, knelt in front of Lydia and begged her. But she said it was a prank?" "She couldn't do that even if she wanted to prank on Lydia, could she? That is Lydia's fiance." "I don't think it's a prank. I was in the dormitory at that time and I saw it with my own eyes. Nina looked really sad. In my opinion, Lydia must have put pressure on Nina, so Nina has to do this." "Lydia's family
As soon as Lydia entered the school, she walked with her head down, because she was afraid of meeting acquaintances. Besides, with John holding her hand, she did not have to worry that she would fall down. After what had happened yesterday, she... had become quite well-known in school. "Lydia, look up." His voice was very soft, but she was somewhat pressurized. She gave him a resentful look, "Do you even want to force me to raise my head?" He chuckled, "Didn't you listen to my words carefully just now?" "Yeah." Lydia snorted, "But I came in here, didn't I?" She said, "You said those words indeed, and I think it makes sense, but... John, it's hard for me to do it, okay? I know I'm not wrong, but I'm very worried. You are not me, so you won't understand my mood." John sighed lightly and didn't know what to say at the moment. Although he didn't talk much in ordinary times, he did things in a decisive manner. Perhaps, he really had no way to
"John, you're here?" Nina ran into the house with great joy. Just now, she went out, but when she knew that he had come here, she rushed back, for fear that she would miss him. Fortunately, he had not left yet. Looking at John who was sitting in the living room, she was very happy, and her heart jumped very fast. John was very excellent, and she was infatuated with him. Although she had done such a thing, she didn't regret it at all. As long as she could be with him, she couldn't care about so much. That day... why on earth did he come here? Was it because Lydia couldn't stand it anymore and broke up with him? Had he found out how good she was? John raised his head and took a look at her. His eyes were very bland. When she was about to walk over, John stood up. He arranged his suit and said to her father, "I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer as I said. I hope to hear it tomorrow." Her father's face darkened, but he didn't dare to lose
